Physicians who gave children a medicine of their own: Helen Taussig with the blue baby operation and the founding of pediatric cardiology and Benjamin Spock with the book that shaped childcare. A person belongs here when the cited article describes a pediatrician. It excludes obstetricians and gynecologists. The group is small because the subcategory holds only six open entries, and each physician is admitted by the patients treated, children, and never by the date of the work.
